Laptop problems we fix
Here's how we deal with the usual laptop problems, from physical damage to a laptop that has simply slowed down.
| The problem | What we do |
|---|---|
| Cracked screen, lines or a dark display | Replace the screen panel, matched to your model's size, resolution and connector |
| Missing, sticky or dead keys | Replace the keycaps or the full keyboard, depending on the damage |
| Battery won't hold charge or is swollen | Fit a new battery and check the charging circuit |
| Laptop won't charge | Test the charger first, then repair the charging port or DC jack |
| Loose, cracked or stiff hinges | Repair or replace the hinges and any damaged casing around them |
| Overheating or a loud fan | Clean out the dust, renew the thermal paste and check the fan |
| Slow to start or freezing | Find the cause, then upgrade to an SSD or reinstall the operating system |
| A drink spilled on the keyboard | Clean and assess the damage, then replace the parts it has affected |
Make an older laptop feel new again
If your laptop still has a traditional hard drive, swapping it for a solid-state drive (SSD) is usually the single biggest speed boost you can buy. Start-up times drop from minutes to seconds, and programs open noticeably faster.
Adding memory helps too, where your laptop allows it. Many thin laptops, and every MacBook with Apple silicon, have their memory soldered to the board, so we'll check what's possible before recommending anything.
Popular laptop upgrades
- A hard drive swapped for an SSD, with your files moved across
- More memory (RAM), where the laptop allows it
- A clean reinstall of Windows or macOS
- A deep clean and fresh thermal paste

Spilt something on your laptop? Do this straight away
- Turn it off and unplug it
- Hold the power button until it switches off, then disconnect the charger. Don't wait to save your work.
- Turn it upside down
- Open it wide and stand it upside down in a tent shape, so liquid can drain away from the board.
- Don't switch it back on
- Even if it seems fine, powering it up while it is wet can short-circuit the board.
- Skip the rice and the hairdryer
- Neither removes liquid from inside, and heat can make things worse. Get it checked quickly instead.

Laptop repair FAQs
How much does laptop repair cost in Manchester?
It depends on the laptop and the repair. A screen for a budget Windows laptop costs far less than one for a MacBook Pro, for example. Send us the make, model and fault for a free, fixed quote before any work starts.
Is it worth repairing an old laptop?
Often, yes. A new battery, an SSD upgrade or a screen replacement can give a laptop years more use for a fraction of the price of a new one. If yours isn't worth fixing, we'll say so.
Can you get my files off a broken laptop?
Often, as long as the storage drive itself hasn't failed. Tell us what you need saving before we start, and we'll make recovering it part of the plan.
Do you repair MacBooks?
Yes. We repair MacBook Air and MacBook Pro models, including screens, batteries, keyboards and charging faults. Newer MacBooks build more parts into the logic board, so we'll explain what's possible for yours.
How long does a laptop repair take?
Many repairs, such as batteries and SSD upgrades, can be done the same day. Screens and keyboards sometimes need ordering for your exact model, and we'll give you a timescale when we quote.
Do you collect laptops?
Yes, free from your home or office anywhere in Greater Manchester. We bring the laptop back once it has been repaired and tested.
